Zhong Yirou raised her eyebrows, with a puzzled expression on her face, time was running out, An Wujiu got off platform No. 2, took the initiative to stand on her platform No. 3, and completed the exchange.

He originally wanted to fight for a high score and widen the gap of 2 points with Shen Ti who is also 10 points, but at the last moment, An Wujiu guessed that Yang Erci had just seen his purpose.

Although he is different from others and has no competition, standing still and letting others choose first is undoubtedly the best way to observe.

But Zhong Yirou started to snatch the position of the bird catcher after Yang Erci was blindfolded, and she didn't take it too far in the last round, so she was Yang Erci's blind spot in thinking.

I had no choice but to take a back seat and play a blindfolded role.

When Shengyin asked Yang Erci who was the bird catcher behind him, Yang Erci seemed to be entangled for a while and did not give an answer immediately.

This shows that the exchange tactic worked.

"An Wujiu." Yang Erci finally gave the answer.

Zhong Yirou jumped up happily, and made a high five gesture to An Wujiu. But An Wujiu remembered that Shengyin said not to make a sound, and didn't want to spoil her interest, so he stretched out his hand and touched her palm very lightly.

Yang Erci took off the ribbon and looked behind him, with a little surprise in his eyes, but Zhong Yirou was very happy, and when he was in the mood, he even blew an elegant kiss to the losing Yang Erci.

"The outsider wins this round, 5 points will be deducted for the bird in the cage, 5 points will be added to the bird catcher, and 3 points will be added to the other outsiders. The current score of the players on the field: Player An Wujiu and player Shen Ti - 13 points, player Zhong Yirou - 5 Points, player Yang Erci - negative 5 points, the rest of the players are 3 points."

"The fourth round of the game begins. The bird catcher of the third round, Zhong Yirou, is invited to enter the cage, stand on the round platform facing the door and cover his eyes."

Zhong Yirou did so, but when she really took the place of the caged bird, half of the joy of victory was washed away. Because when she stood in this position, the bird catchers she faced were probably Shen Ti and An Wugui.

"Ask the caged bird to name a number."

Zhong Yirou thought for a while, "3."

The bird catcher needs to stand on platform 1 to move 3 more times to get behind her.

This is the last round of the match, and it is still a very crucial counter-kill opportunity for Zhong Yirou.

Once she wins, 10 points will be added directly, for a total of 15 points, which will become the highest score in the game and win this warm-up match.

But if they lose, it's fine if they lose to others, as long as five points are not added to An Wujiu or Shen Ti, there will be an extra match.

The two of them currently have the same score. If they want to end the game directly in this round, one of them must be in the position of bird catcher, and the other is an ordinary outsider, so as to increase the score.

But who will snatch this position, Zhong Yirou is not sure.

"The person outside the cage has moved."

It was only at this time that Zhong Yirou discovered that thinking time could pass so quickly when he was a bird in a cage.

"Caged bird, who is the bird catcher behind you?"

She used up almost all of her time, taking deep breaths and giving answers at the last minute.

"Shen Ti."

The pause of the holy voice for a few seconds seemed like years to Zhong Yirou.

"Caged bird, please look back."

It must be counter-killed successfully.

Zhong Yirou took off the ribbon and turned away.

Behind him is An Wujiu who is standing upright with a gentle expression.

Angrily, Zhong Yirou pinched her hand, stomped her feet, the heels of her high heels knocked on the ground, and then squatted down angrily.

"It's just one step away! It's just one step away! Oh, I'm so mad."

Seeing her like this, An Wujiu showed a little apology in his eyes, and then helplessly spread his hand towards her, and said softly, "Why did you choose Shen Ti?"

"That's right." Shen Ti was on Platform 2 next to An Wujiu, he squatted down and looked Zhong Yirou at the same level.

Zhong Yirou fell into her own troubles, she thought she would try to turn her bicycle into a motorcycle, but in the end, even the keys of the bicycle flew away.

"I originally wanted to choose Wugui, because you don't seem to have that much desire to win, but I thought about it again, what if you have one? You are completely uncertain."

"Then I felt that if you want to win, An Wujiu might spoil you and let you be the number one. Because he is a person who is very good at hiding his clumsiness."

"I didn't expect that." Zhong Yirou shook his head, stood up, and found that Wu You, who likes to pretend to be cool, was laughing, "You really let me down, Shen Ti."

Shen Ti also stood up, his mind still stuck in the previous sentence that Zhong Yirou said, "Is he spoiling me?"

"Why didn't I get used to him?"

An Wujiu immediately dismissed it, "I won by my own ability."

Zhong Yirou sighed and left the cage.

"Forget it. Originally, my 5 points were given away for no reason, so I should pay them back."

After she walked out, the holy voice sounded again.

"game over."

The huge golden birdcage disappeared, only Shengyin was left alone in the empty hall announcing the final result.

"The current scores of the players on the field: An Wujiu scored 18 points, Shen Ti 16 points, Wu You, Nanshan and Qiao Xi 6 points, Zhong Yirou 0 points, Yang Erci lost 2 points."

"Congratulations to player An Wujiu for winning the first place in this round of warm-up competition."

Games are so dramatic.

Yang Erci, who was obviously smart enough to understand the rules in the first round, was eight points lower than the players who were flat throughout the game, while Zhong Yirou, who was only one step away from victory, lost his score to zero after he was busy.

A blue gift box popped out from An Wujiu's hand.

"Congratulations! Before you initialize the game for everyone, you can open your rewards first."

An Wujiu was a little surprised, was it the other way around this time

He reached out and touched the blue box, and the gift box opened automatically along with the joyful music, and many ribbons and shiny gold paper came out of it.

It popped up so suddenly that it jumped onto An Wujiu's face, making him a little confused.

In the box, there are two red cards with the word [reward].

He picked up the cards, turned them over, and on the back of one was written [Game Confrontation Form Selection], and on the other was [Easter Egg Card].

Shengyin appeared: "Player An Wugui, the reward time is now open. In order to protect your rewards, other players present will completely block the conversation between you and me until the rewards are distributed."

It's quite humane.

Please "Please choose from the following two options, the confrontation method of this round of the official game."

Soon, a line of words appeared before An Wujiu's eyes.

[1. Individual battle (players work on their own), 2. Team battle (players are randomly divided into two groups, the winner advances, and the loser is eliminated)]

"Randomly..." An Wujiu's voice was very soft and low.

He won the competition this time just to be able to choose the team competition.

But he ignored the rules of forming a group. If it was a random team formation, he would never have predicted what kind of team formation would happen.

Very inappropriately, the image of the 24 hours back to reality emerged in his mind.

To create an emotional connection in [the altar] is very dangerous intellectually.

Will be deceived, will affect the decision, and even die.

An Wujiu is clear.

"Personal battle." He raised his head.

"sure?"

He nodded, and suddenly wanted to ask if there would be a non-team team battle in the future, but he quickly gave up on this question.

Because it's not fair.

"Okay, your second reward is an uncommon easter egg card, which means you are lucky."

Yeah? An Wujiu was skeptical of Shengyin's words.

"But the premise of fulfilling the Easter egg is that you must survive this round of the game, otherwise it will be invalid."

really.

"It's such a pity, can't it be transferred to someone else?"

"It cannot be transferred, but you can entrust others to draw cards. An easter egg card has three chances to draw. If you are lucky enough, you may be able to draw a special skill card that can be used indiscriminately in any game in the altar, but It can only be used once."

"For example," he said a very exciting skill card, "Resurrection card, this is an SSS rare card, but it is not impossible to draw it."

An Wujiu suddenly felt that Shengyin was like an extreme MLM propagandist, speaking of wonderful proposals that were exciting but had almost zero chance of being realized.

"Okay." An Wujiu accepted perfunctorily, "As long as I survive this round, I can draw easter eggs at any time, right?"

"Yes, as long as you survive this round." Shengyin emphasized again, "But the specific drawing of rare cards, ordinary cards, or even blank cards will be left to luck."

An Wujiu always thought that he was very unlucky.

So he wasn't too excited, but just accepted this precious easter egg card.

"Bonus time is over."

The shielding of other players also ended, and Shengyin announced, "Player An Wugui chose a personal battle."

Others didn't seem to express surprise or disapproval of An Wujiu's choice. Unlike the previous game player configuration, this time the players didn't seem so vile and reckless on the surface.

"Now for the official game initialization."

Soon, the hall they were in was shattered into countless light particles in an instant, like annihilation, but soon, those light particles gathered again to model a brand new world.

An Wujiu squinted his eyes and adjusted to the light, it was very similar to the gorgeous hall of the bird in the cage, but it was also dark here, and the vision was not very clear.

They seem to be initialized in a small dark room, there is no window here, only the uppermost edge of the four walls and the edge connecting the ceiling, revealing a long strip of green light.

Apart from that, there is only a huge dark monitor and a projected keyboard in the whole room.

"It's a bit scary here..." Zhong Yirou folded his arms, feeling the cold wind around him, and lamented that he shouldn't be wearing short-sleeved clothes today, but what he touched was not the skin, but the fabric. She looked down and saw that she was wearing a white coat.

An Wujiu also felt that the atmosphere was not right.

Especially the air here is very turbid, with a faint smell of blood mixed with excrement.

"a little cold."

He heard Shen Ti's voice, and then felt a person move beside him, standing next to him arm to arm.

The holy voice appeared.

"Welcome everyone, the name of this game is 'Abandoned Babies Shelter Center'."

"This is a charity organization designed to shelter and raise abandoned infants and young children. The reception center is a pagoda-shaped building with five floors. Due to some accidents, the security system of the reception center collapsed, and the entire building was completely under investigation. In a closed state, you are the ones trapped in it, and those who escape from the tower within 72 hours are considered the [survivors] of this round of the game."

"I have a question."

The Taoist Nanshan who had been silent all this time stretched out a hand slowly at this time, "It's completely closed, how do we escape? We don't even know where we are right now."

The tone of his speech was a bit frivolous, which was somewhat different from the Taoist image An Wujiu imagined.

"You are initialized on the first floor of this containment center." Sheng Yin said, "Although the security system is broken, there is a backup emergency preset system in the containment center, which needs to enter the key in the parent server on the fifth floor , open a special safe passage, and leave from the rooftop on the top floor."

"This key is divided into five parts, which are stored in a certain room on the fifth floor. You need to go up one level to collect key fragment information, and finally open the door to survival."

"These are the rules, and there will be corresponding instructions following the progress of the game. Please be ready, players, everything is about to begin."

An Wujiu frowned.

Listening to the rules, this game does not seem to require intrigue as much as the previous round of red and black.

Is it as simple as collecting information and leaving the closed holding center, without other obstacles to survival

A countdown of white numbers has begun to appear above the heads of the seven of them, only 5 seconds.

After the countdown ended, everything around did not change much, but like a bird in a cage, music appeared in the entire space out of thin air, and then, a gentle and loving female voice began to sing.

It's a lullaby.

"Sleep, sleep,

my dear baby,

Mother's hands gently shake you.

The cradle rocks you to sleep quickly and peacefully,

Sleeping peacefully in the cradle, warm and cozy..."

It is obviously a warm song, but at this moment, in this room surrounded by ghostly green light, the taste has somewhat changed.

"It's really cold here. Are we going to get out of this room?" Josh's voice trembled a little. He didn't seem to be very good at this type of survival game player.

An Wujiu comforted him, "Yes, I don't know how difficult it is to leave the room, but there are seven of us, and we can always solve the puzzle together."

His comfort made Josh calm down, "Thank you, because I'm claustrophobic and a little timid."

"It's okay, you should be able to go out."

Shen Ti, who was sticking to An Wujiu, was a little unhappy, but he didn't realize that he was unhappy, he just thought it was strange.

So he tapped An Wujiu's shoulder with his finger, "Hey."

An Wujiu turned his head, looked up at Shen Ti, the strange green light shone on his face, unexpectedly there was a subtle sense of harmony.

Shen Ti parted his lips, and deliberately put on that childish tone, "I'm so scared too."

An Wujiu finally felt cold, goosebumps came out.

"Do you think I believe you?"

Zhong Yirou, who was standing behind the two of them, reminded Shen Ti in a low voice, "Don't force him to behave differently, I beg you."

Wu You also said sarcastically, "I agree."
